[QUOTE="kanga, post: 3085180, member: 9270"]When I took Grading 1 and 2 at the ANA Summer Seminars I found I had strong tendencies to do technical grading, not market grading. That causes me grief on coins like this one. A lot of your opinions were like mine. I see the obverse as a VG-10. I see the reverse as F-12, maybe even F-15. Since split grades are no longer done AND the obverse tends to have precedence over the reverse I settled tentatively for VG-10. But with your help I've decided I can live with F-12. Which is good since that's what PCGS graded it, F-12. Next thing I want to do is surf into PCGS and look up the slab number. If there's an image of the coin I want to do a comparison. Hopefully I can still get logged in there (the easy part) and find out how to look up slab ID numbers (often difficult to navigate around places like that). If I want to go for it the next part will be negotiating the price. [B]Thanks to all who took the time and effort to help.[/B][/QUOTE]
